re: Female deputy accidentally shoots perps mother

Couple of things.

The female officer is obviously grossly overweight.

Two, she should have waited on the male officer to take this guy down on the stairs. Period.

Three. Mom didn't want her boy shot .... so I get her trying to protect him from that once the sidearm was brought into play. She gambled, she lost.

Four, two shots were fired. The second one the female officer appeared to be going for a leg shot. It was past leg shots by then IMHO. Especially when she was trying to aim center mass on the first shot.

Six, not sure why a taser was not employed almost from the get go. Usually when they see the red dot hit them, they know what's coming next and she could have really laid the juice to his arse.

Seven. Her grip discipline was horrible. She limp twisted the frick outta that service piece. She should have been high and tight with weak thumb down the frame and her less reliant on sights .... she should go extended when he makes his move and in the process the trigger squeeze becomes a natural part of the extension rather than the slapping she was doing.
